The old man was a little choked up, before he opened his mouth to speak to Mike.

“These bandits were originally part of the troops stationed at the southern part of the Empire on the Nanlian Mountain.”

“Later on, after the southern part of the Empire had been annihilated by the Lieluo Army, these people then settled down on the Nanlian Mountain. While the Lieluo Army was still in Xinluo city, they were not so rampant!

“However, during the period of time since the Lieluo Army left the south and went all the way north, these people turned into bandits and started constantly invading our town!”

After hearing this, Mike finally understood the whole story.

Thus, Mike opened his mouth to ask, “May I ask, old sir, where is this Nanlian Mountain?”

When the old man heard that question, he pointed to a mountain not far away.

Through his divine body that was attached to his eyes, Mike could see the flag flying on the mountain.

Then, Mike continued to ask, “Old sir, do you know the exact number of these guys?”

The old man thought for a while before replying.

“About two hundred people!”

“Two hundred people?”

Mike felt a little incredulous.

After suppressing his emotions for a while, Mike spoke again.

“I really didn’t expect that these bandits with only two hundred people would dare to do such an ugly thing in the territory of the Lieluo Empire!”

Hearing Mike say this, the old man began to guess Mike’s identity.

Hence, the old man continued by asking, “Young man, could it be that you are a soldier of the Nameless Army?”

When Mike heard the old man’s words, he gave an easy smile and said, “I am not a soldier of the Nameless Army, but my strength is even stronger than the soldiers of the Nameless Army!”

The old man looked at Mike in disbelief, before exclaiming in surprise.

“Really?”

Mike gave the old man a light smile, and then said, “Old man, these bandits are all on the Nanlian Mountain, right?”

The old man thought for a moment before replying.

“I’m not sure, but most of these bandits are on Nanlian Mountain!”

“Okay! I’ve got it!”

Mike said indignantly.

After getting all the information, Mike turned to speak to Lilian.

“Lilian, please wait for me here. I’ll be back soon!”

Lilian did not worry, even after hearing that. She just nodded with a smile and said, “Come back soon!”

“Okay!”

Mike gave Lilian a determined look and prepared to walk towards the Nanlian Mountain.

Having guessed Mike’s decision, the old man hurried to pull on Mike and plead with him.

“Young man, I know you are strong, but don’t do anything stupid!”

Hearing the old man’s words, Mike gave the old man a reassuring smile and said, “Don’t worry, old sir, I’m naturally a confident person!”

With that, Mike made to leave.

However, when he turned around, Mike suddenly thought of something, took a medicinal pill out from his backpack.

Mike handed the medicinal pill that was in his hand to the old man and then said, “Old sir, please give this medicinal pill to your wife to eat!”

“This… What is this?”

Seeing that the old man was a bit puzzled, Mike smiled reassuringly and said, “Don’t worry, this pill is not harmful!

“Just wait for me to come back!”

After saying that, Mike walked in the direction of the Nanlian Mountain.

The old man stared at Mike’s back and said a silently prayed for Mike.

Lilian seemed to see the worry in the old man’s heart, so she reassured him.

“Don’t worry, he will return safely!”

…

The sky was gradually turning dark, and the path up the Nanlian Mountain was unusually rugged.

Mike had been suppressing the anger in his heart.

All he wanted was to catch up to the Nanlian Mountain as soon as possible.

After a short climb, Mike finally arrived at the top of Nanlian Mountain.

Mike saw the flag fluttering on the Nanlian Mountain and realized that there was a relatively simple stronghold here.

It looked like an modified version of a defensive point.

Mike walked towards the gates of the stronghold without hesitation.

The mountain bandits guarding the stronghold saw Mike coming alone and asked, “Hey, kid over there! What are you doing?”

When the bandit saw that Mike did not react, he continued to curse.

“I’m talking to you! Are you deaf?”

Mike suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with killing intent. He stared at the bandit as he said, “I’m the one who has come to kill you!”

Mike tore through the void of space and pulled out the Scarlet Magic Sword that Hankov had given him.

Mike looked at the demonic eye that had opened up on the Scarlet Magic Sword.

On the Scarlet Magic Sword, a burst of dark red flames erupted.

The flames seemed to look like death, like a kind of lava from hell, bringing an endless pressure to the surroundings.

The bandit guard seemed to have realized that something was wrong.

He was about to call for help, but it was already too late.

Now that the Scarlet Magic Sword was unsheathed, how could it not shed any blood?

A huge dark red flame cut through the gate of the entire stronghold.

Mike was controlling it with precision, without making too much noise.

Wherever the dark red flame went, all living things were split into two.

The bandit guard’s head and body were instantly separated.

Copious amounts of blood oozed out of his head and very quickly, the head began to burn on its own.

Mike was not the slightest bit surprised by what was happening in front of him.

His heart was completely filled with hatred and anger.

Soon, the guard’s head was only a pile of bones.

Mike pushed at the gate that he had cut open, and walked towards the fortress.

The Scarlet Magic Sword in Mike’s hand was spitting out blood.

It seemed to like the smell of blood.

Mike continued to walk towards the fortress.

Pushing open the door, the inside of the building revealed a burst of light.

What he saw in front of him was actually a feast of wine and meat.

The group of mountain bandits within the building stared at Mike who had made a sudden appearance, their eyes filled with surprise.

One of the mountain bandits was the first to speak.

“You… Who are you? You… How did you get in?”

Mike smiled coldly, before answering.

“I’m the one who has come to take your useless life!”

Mike once again raised the Scarlet Magic Sword that was in his hands.

Wherever the dark red flames passed, everything was cut in half.

The bandits within the building had no time to resist. Just like that, under the dark red flames, their heads and bodies were split in two, just like the bandits who were outside the door..
